Biden’s ‘kids in cages’ prove his hypocrisy on immigration.

Funny how it wasn't a red herring under Trump, but it suddenly is now that Biden is President!

 

It' not about cages, it's about stopping the policy of permanent separation. The cages thing is a red herring.

No one is for open borders. You're given to hysterics. Chill out.

 

The cages issue is a red herring to divert attention from the real issue of separating children from parents.

 

Cruelty? To repeat: there are 70 million refugees in this world fleeing war and poverty.

You don't think your 'sovereignty of the individual' competitive free market ideology has anything to do with it?

eg, the globalization-caused economic misery of the 'rust belt' in the US itself (who supported Trump in 2016) is one thing, but most of rest of the world is in an even worse situation......

Maybe some managed co-operation on behalf of economic development in all nations is necessary....

 

So then you were against it when 'kids in cages' was used under Trump?

 

No, the salient issue is the wrongful separation of kids from parents.
Kids in cages is a red herring. Just something a few in the media latched onto.

 

Yes, so then you were against when 'kids in cages' was used under Trump!

 

Reread my rebuttal, please.

 

You seem to be saying that the cries of "kids in cages" under Trump was a distraction from the "salient issue" which was family separation.

 

Biden’s Gag Order on the Border Patrol.

Democracy Dies In Darkness

 

My first sentence was about children who were accompanied by their parents and why they may have chosen to leave them in US custody while they headed back home without them and did not want to be found. I also provided a reason why they chose not to be found. I'm willing to bet the children who are now coming across the border were either accompanied by a parent to the US border but did not enter or if the child was old enough to make the journey on their own had the blessings of their parent(s) to do so to see their children avoid joining gangs at home or being murdered for not joining gangs. Isn't this the liberal's claim families are leaving their homes to find a safe country to live?

 

Aa I said to the other user: if you can't or won't see the difference, there's nothing I can say.

 

And you're cont

I wouldn't.

 

So you've been to these child encampments? If they are not free to leave then tell me what's so different about them? Is CBP treating them nicer? Better food? Comfier beds? Do they get to watch cartoons? Being more specific with your answer can make you more creditable in your assessment.

 

Indeed, permanent family separation due faulty record keeping by the Trump administration, for no crime greater than a misdemeanor, IS the salient issue.

As for 'cages', all the substandard considerations, if there are any, do have to be addressed, but a photo, in and of itself, doesn't tell the tale, necessarily, so I would need to see an IG report, or something along those lines. In other words, any claims of substandard treatment of children, I'll need to see more details.

 

The issue, for me, was Trump's incompetent handling of separated children, where their sloppy book keeping prevented reunions.

 

Trying to get accurate information from people who left their country for a number of reasons is probably a lot like herding cats. How's Biden handling the crisis on the border? This is what happens when you look weak on immigration. Biden has created a mess and his promise of more transparency is not there. What exactly is Biden trying to hide? You can't say this is Trump's fault. It's easy to second guess someone when you're not in charge.

A subject for another thread, so start one.

 

“THIS IS NOT A CRISIS, THIS IS A FULL-BLOWN DISASTER”: Texas Lt. Governor Dan Patrick On Biden’s Border Crisis.

‘We were able to relax under the Trump Administration because he actually did his job and we were in good shape on the border, before Biden got elected. We were in good shape. The protocols were working, keeping the asylum seekers in Mexico.’

 

Okay, so everything that you're saying tells me that you were against when 'kids in cages' was used under Trump!

 

Did you intentionally quote my post in this reply?

 

Are they?

 

My guess is no.

 

It's all part of Biden's hypocrisy on the border crisis.

 

No, I"m against child abuse.
